>>11139460>>11139466I'm sure we all have that dream Transformers series we'd make if given the chance; in mine, Primus is a force that the Quintesson's accidentally tap into during the development of Vector Sigma that helps them build Cybertron and its inhabitant product lines, but because the technology they created isn't something they fully understand the Cybertronians are capable of going rogue and rising up against them. So they get chased off and, out of spite, try to recreate Vector Sigma but "right" this time, and in doing so create Unicron and build him a body by stripmining their own planet into a skeletal shithole.
So there's a little bit of mysticism present in sort of a Neuromancer kind of way, but focusing more on the Quintessons and their hubris regarding their creations.
